Sleepy Sleepy

I have a few pictures of Kellen falling asleep with all of the kids....It's just his thing:) It's cute. 

Bea is 6 weeks old this Wednesday. It has gone by fast. At the the same time, I feel like she should be about three months old now...it feels like she's been here a while now! And I'm feeling good so it just seems like she's older. But we're all glad that she's just 6 weeks old. She'll never be this newborn baby again. Once she's an adult she's an adult for eternity so I'm treasuring this special time I have with her. She's pretty sweet! She's such a happy little one and she makes us want more! Having more kids makes life so much more fun. More work definitely, but also more fulfilling. Cole and Gracie are still so sweet to her and really have taken all the changes in stride. The only thing I'm wondering about is Gracie's constant desire to draw on things all over the house.....maybe this is the one regression that she has with Bea. Today she drew with pen all over the top part of her favorite sunday dress, on her hands and feet, and just now I went to check on her in her room and she was drawing on the wall next to her bed. Gbaldjsaf! (Exasperation). Earlier today we talked and I let her know that if she chooses to draw on anything other than paper she will have all her markers and crayons taken away for a day. So, just now I let her know that tomorrow she will have no crayons or markers or pens to color with for the day. She replied, "Well mom guess what! That's good because I don't want to color at all tomorrow!" I'm so glad that worked out so well for her....
